With seven studio albums with his band and one solo album, the ‘diminutive in size but monumental in status’ singer took to stage in front of a capacity crowd.
Playing at least one song from each album (excluding, Pablo Honey), the Oxford legend began with three tracks from The Eraser, his 2006 solo album. Self titled ‘The Eraser’ kicked things off before Global Warming warning ‘The Clock’. The “angriest song I’ve ever written”, ‘Harrowdown Hill’, about the death of scientist David Kelly followed before Radiohead tracks old and new.
The old came in the form of The Bends opener ‘Planet Telex’ stripped down to a piano and vocals only performance. Amnesiac’s ‘I Might Be Wrong’ and ‘Everything In It’s Right Place’ from Kid A were given an incredible welcome from an awestruck crowd, as was ‘The Gloaming’ from Hail To The Thief.
Smoke swept across the stage as ‘Reckoner’ brought the set bang up to date before Thom started looping a vocal of “Don’t Hurt Me” through an acoustic driven track. The hushed silence meant only one thing, confirmed by the singer, “That was a new Radiohead song”. Six words to warm the hearts of music fans the world over.
The audience was sent back in time to 1997 with the closer, an incredible acoustic version of ‘Airbag’ from OK Computer.
As Thom Yorke left the stage, a mass of happy smiley faces contemplated what is easily one of the highlights of this festival year.
